Stronger nails...yes, lasting colour...no.
I was very excited to try Essie's new Treat Love & Colour nail polish (which I received as a gift), as it claims to give you stronger nails in just 1 week, 60% less peeling and 35% less breakage. As someone who suffers from thin, brittle nails, I was hoping that this product would be exactly what I've been looking for.
Unfortunately, for me, it didn't live up to its claims. While I did notice that my nails were slightly stronger, I continued to suffer from peeling after taking it off.
I was really impressed by the assortment of colours available (I tried the power punch pink), but I was less impressed by the quality of the nail polish itself. The application was very easy and smooth, however, after only 3 days, the polish started to peel off. My nails looked really good for a few days, but then I had to remove it after only 5 days, since it was chipped everywhere.
Usually I really like Essie nail polish, but this new product did not live up to my expectations. Unfortunately, I would not recommend this nail polish.

All in one nail polish!!
I love this! Not often do you find a nail polish that helps strengthen nails and helps with peeling! Especially in the winter, my nails are so brittle and so far this feels like my nails have gotten harder which I like! Will have to get this in another colour in the near future!!!
Love that it does both!
I was so excited to hear about essie's Treat Love + Colour line. I don't like spending too much time on my nails so I love the convenience of having colour and treatment in one. I LOVED the light pink colour of the Minimally Modest shade and it was more pigmented than what I thought it was going to be! I think this nail polish is going to be my go-to.
Treats & Colours!
I've been using different brands of nail polish for weak/brittle nails for a couple of years to help repair the damage of the acrylic nails I wear through the winter. Typically the options I had available that worked were clear and pretty pricey, and you go through it pretty quickly, applying coats every other day!
When I found this new line by essie, I was excited! It had a selection of lovely colours and it only requires two coats once a week! And it was half the price of the other brands I was buying!
So, does it stand up to what it claims? Yes! For me, it's been great. I find it chips pretty quickly, but the polish is coming off, not my nails, and my nails are growing in nice and healthy! Can't recommend this product enough!
Very pigmented!
I was very excited to try Essie's new "Treat, love & color" I tried the color "blush" which typically a light coloured polish would need multiple coats but to my surprise this light pink/neutral was VERY pigmented! I was very impressed and now I want to try more colors!
Good!
I guess there's nothing bad to say about this, but it's not amazing either. I wear it (in white) sometimes when I want a subtle color without being too noticeable (due to my work) and it looks really nice, although I'm not sure if it actually makes my nails stronger. I usually apply 2 coats.
Bien
Love it ! J'adore ce vernis à ongle la couleur est magnifique et s'applique à merveille ! Le rouge vif est ma couleur préférer à coup sur parfaite avec mon sac a main :)
esssssie
i love this product the applicator glide so smooth and its easy to use i love this brand ever since im using this brand. i still recommend this product to my friends
Excellent for work
In between shellac application I like to give my nails a nice break. I apply this treatment once a week for a month and I find it strengthens my nails while still providing a pretty sheen.
Great Alone or as a base Coat!
I opted for the Treat me bright colour (clearish), and it's a lovely shimmery colour that I have been wearing as both the only polish and as a base coat for other Essie polishes (i.e. the chalkier colours).
As a base coat, it has actually helped prevent some of the normal day-after chipping that some of the flatter Essie colours seem to have; and as a solo polish, it's nice enough and durable enough, that it lasts me all week long.
I have even been able to do my camp chores (cutting and burning branches and wood) with minimal chipping of the polish as a solo coat! this doesn't happen often, so it's definitely a bonus feature.
My nails seem to be peeling and breaking less, and even the cuticles don't seem as dried out.
Overall, it does what is says it does, and it's my new go-to!
